Hi Patriot Families!

I am Charlitha Dotson. This is my 7th year teaching at PUHSD as an Education Specialist (SPED). I teach Basic Physical Science, Basic Earth Science, and Study Skills. Teaching is my passion and a spiritual gift from God, and I’ve been doing it for 20 years! I love teaching, learning, and having fun in the classroom! I am stern but FAIR! And I have a heart for my students and their futures as productive citizens.

Every scholar has the potential to be a success in life! Today's Scholars are teachers, cosmetologists, lawyers, farmers, etc.—productive future citizens.  Science benefits each of us in many facets of our life; therefore, physical science and earth science will provide scholars with real-world working knowledge of scientific principles that help us navigate jobs and careers in the workforce.
